Steve Steinman launches single from new Vampires Rock musical Eternal Love, as tickets for shows go on sale
Ahead of the run of his brand-new musical Eternal Love, Steve Steinman has launched his latest single.
The track Something of the Night follows six number one singles and two number one albums by the Newark-based independent theatre show producer, and is a pounding rocker taken from the score of Eternal Love — the new chapter of Vampires Rock.
“Like all my music, it is epic storytelling set to song,” said Steve.
“Something of the Night is one of more than 20 original compositions that will feature in my forthcoming brand-new, vampire-themed musical Eternal Love, which takes to the road in January 2025.”
The duet between Steve Steinman and talented vocalist Trixabelle Bold, published on Amazon Music and iTunes, chronicles what happens when love turns sour between a vampire couple.
The song showcases the comedic traits of Steve Steinman’s Vampires Rock trilogy of rock musicals, and is supported by the release of a seven-minute, no-holds-barred, gothic video that sees Steve Steinman’s Baron von Rockular character, from the Vampires Rock trilogy, given it both barrels by Vampirette Trixabelle.
Something of the Night, like many of the other original compositions featured in Eternal Love: The Musical, owes its existence to the lockdown.
“To be honest, I’d not considered presenting a musical featuring an original score until the pandemic forced our shows off of the road,” Steve said.
“Composer Steve Etherington had sent me some songs pre-lockdown. But, I’d not had time to listen to them as I was perpetually on the road.
“During lockdown that all changed. I remember thinking ‘flipping heck, these are good’, so I recorded them.
“Out of the blue I was sent some others and I ended up releasing two albums — Take a Leap of Faith and Heaven’s Gate.”
One song — Everything They Said Was True — was written by the dream team of legendary songwriter John Parr, of St Elmo’s Fire fame, and Meat Loaf.
“John had written it with Meat Loaf in 1982, but it just never got released,” Steve added.
“John told me to get it out there, that it needs to be heard.”
Tickets are also now on sale for Eternal Love: The Musical — Steve’s new vampire-themed musical with an original rock score.
It will be Newark Palace Theatre in April 2025.
